About This Fund
The Fund is a new dedicated seed‑stage vehicle created by Sequoia Capital to partner with extraordinary founders at the very beginning of their journey. Backed by a $200 million seed‑pool and launching alongside a $750 million Series A vehicle, the fund underscores Sequoia’s pivot to earlier stage investments amid rapidly escalating valuations driven by AI. The firm emphasises backing teams before product‑market fit has been fully proven, helping them build meaningful businesses from day one through hands‑on support, governance, and access to its network of talent, customers and follow‑on capital. With its legacy of early bets in Airbnb, Google, NVIDIA and Stripe, Sequoia views this fund as a means to secure significant ownership and lasting influence in the next generation of category‑defining companies. The geographic scope spans the US and Europe, targeting foundational technology companies across AI, infrastructure, security, e‑commerce and enterprise software.
